Google just told me it was a 7.1% decline on September 11. What decline are we at right now?

3.85%. People don't understand math.

And it was down 5% when Obama was elected in 2008.

Well, looks like Hillary won VA by roughly the number of votes as felons that Clinton crony McAuliffe (and VA governor) restored voting rights to.

Fuck, America. Now the whole world (rightly) thinks we're a bunch racist, asshole idiots.

Does it matter though? Arent the denizens of NOVA largely dedicated to the project of keeping the swamp sufficiently moist?

Democracy is the worst.

it's true

the control of thousands of nuclear missiles is assigned by an open mic competition

not such a great idea in retrospect

I don't think that's true, I think there's a lot of Americans who feel life is getting worse and nobody's listening to them.

Trump may not be the right answer but those people and their votes aren't going anywhere. It's something both sides of politics are going to have to understand more deeply.

I'm floored by how consistently far removed from reality the polls were. Not just the volume, but in the demographic spread.

he's gonna win WI

this shit is donezo

I wish I could still feel this way. But fuck that. We are idiots.

Really puts a dent in that whole "inevitability of progressivism" thing, doesn't it?

Well this sucks ass. Hope I still have a job and stuff for the next four years. And a woman can still get an abortion. And planned parenthood isn't defunded. And my rent doesn't go up. And we don't start a bunch of new wars. And marijuana is still legal in Oregon. And gay marriage stays legal. And cost of a college education doesn't continue to rise. And I can still get free healthcare cause I'm poor. And all my Mexican friends don't get deported. And a stupid ass wall isn't built. That's all, or mostly all.

echo chambers are imploding, just not the ones I expected.

After Brexit and the last UK election, I'm not surprised at all that polls wildly underestimate these things.
